Moreover Gobotswang said the fundamental gap in our strategy to curb COV- ID-19 is the absence of public health education. “When the former director of health services was replaced , the nation was told that there will be a shift to primary health care whose main tenant is public health education.

Information gathered by The Botswana Gazette shows that De Beer is a fourth generation descendant of the De Beer family that is associated with the diamond multina- tional that carries his family name. According to available research, the name “De Beers” was derived from two Dutch settlers, brothers Diederik Arnoldus De Beer (December 25, 1825 – 1878) and Johannes Nicolaas De Beer (December 6, 1830 – June 20, 1883) who owned a farm in South Africa’s Orange Free State. After they discovered diamonds on their land, increasing demands of the British government forced them to sell the farm on 31 July 1871 which would then become the site of the De Beers mine. Their name, which was given to one of the mines, subsequently became associated with the company. Bennie, as he is affectionately referred to, is a very wealthy businessman who enjoys very close relations with Botswana’s former president Ian Khama.

Over 65 charges were brought up in this first case, which was Botswana’s biggest case of corruption case involving an array of high profile personages and a network of international links. The Member of Parliament for Se- fhare-Ramokgonami, Dr. Kesitegile Gobotswang, holds that politically- motivated cases like the NPF have exposed lack of independence of the DPP. “The independence of this institution has been compromised beyond repair,” Dr Gobotswanag said in an interview. “Its reputation is in tatters because of political interference.” In his view, the reason the case failed is that President Masisi was im- plicated in it. “He is suspected to have benefited from the proceeds of the alleged crime,” he said. He added that Botswana has adopted a strategy of arrest-and-release that is common in some of countries in Africa. “Another weakness in our justice system is the culture of arrest- and-investigate that clearly amounts to guilty until proven guilty,” he asserted. “It is shameful for a country that prides itself in adherence to the rule of law to allow such gross miscar- riage of justice.” Most of all, he argued, prosecution will not be effective in fighting corruption if the Directorate on Cor- ruption and Economic Crimes is con- trolled by the government of the day because corruption begins at the top and ends at the top. “I suspect that the DPP is under the influence of the powers that deliberately allowed the case to collapse,” he said.

Before I delve into the transfer duty exemption, I will lay a bit of background to the tax known as Transfer Duty. Transfer Duty is a tax payable whenever an immovable property changes hands or when one acquires shares in a property-owning company. The acquirer of the property bears the tax. The tax is paid when the property changes hands via a sale, donation or any other form of devolution. I must hasten to state that transfer duty is waived if a citizen suffers VAT on the acquisition of the property.

The event is being hosted and executed by Suave Lounge and Restaurant but their industry partner, Fine Brands, who are the sole supplier of Musgrave Gin in Gabo- rone, is in full support. For its first instalment, gin and tapas will feature Musgrave premium in two double gin and tonics, two Secco drink infu- sion sachets and four tapas for P450 per person. “We wanted to bring a touch of luxury to what we envi- sioned, and our friends at Fine Brands were able to make it happen with their premium selection of gins,” says Sekwa- babe. Gin & Tapas is not only bringing an international experience to Batswana but feeds into a growing gin culture that has been prominent over the last year, showing that Suave Lounge & Restaurant is very much in touch with what the market wants.

Challenges are part of life and I trust that you are well equipped to address them, now, as professionals as I know that empathy is part of how you conduct yourselves.” The Minister continued by saying, “The College opened its doors after the Botswana Government shifted focus by training most health professionals locally to minimize the high expenditure that was incurred then by sponsoring learners externally. Magna Cum Laude; The TOP graduate, Mr Moitshepi Bernard Mabotseng delivering his inspiring speech The Chancellor, Dr Derrick Dikgato Tlhoiwe said, “the College prides itself in promoting innovation amongst its learners as most research is conducted locally, preparing them to be relevant health professionals with knowledge of the real challenges on the ground.

Information gathered by this study further reveals that approximately 66 Lion Conserva- tion Units (LCU) in the western and central parts of the continent have lion populations extinct, these include among others Boucle Baule in Mali, Comoe-Leraba in Burkinabe, Biu White Volta in Ghana. In the western part of the continent the causes of this decline in the number of lions are civil strife with the W- Arly-Pendjari (This is a park in north western Benin and occupies some parts of Burkinabe and is recognized as a UNESCO world heritage Centre), these civil strives have contributed to over 1,900 civilian deaths. The other causes of this decline in lion numbers is the insatiable appetite for bush meat especially in the Democratic Repub- lic of Congo. It is also worth noting that lion prey is a lesser contributor to lion mortality. The poaching is mostly done to feed the ever-increasing commercial market. However, another cause of the decline in lion numbers is the human settlements as well as procurement of land for subsistence agriculture. In South Africa, the Kruger national park is a lion strong hold in the southern part of the continent. The cause for decline in lion numbers at this famous park has recorded the highest numbers in rhino poaching while farmers in the eastern part of the continent lost their livestock because of lions preying on them, this is referred to as “retaliation killings”. Another recent discovery which has been seen as a cause for the decline in lion numbers is the demand for their teeth, claws and bones, these are known marketable commodities in the illegal wildlife trade. Efforts to fight this decline in lion numbers in Botswana has seen the government put an end to trophy hunting of all wild species on public land following surveys that indicated a great loss of wildlife over the past several years. Despite a considerable income from tourism to Botswana’s Gross Domestic Product, there is still a disconnect between Government support of livestock versus wildlife and hence the Department of Wildlife and National Parks needs to do much better in terms of conservation planning and implementation. Our neighbours South Africa have allowed for lions to be placed in private hands and captive breeding largely supplies the trophy hunting industry. This development has seen over 10,000 successful lion programmes.

BONGANI MALUNGA

he eagerly anticipated exhibition boxing match dubbed ‘The Feel Good Fight 1’ took place this Tpast Friday to raise awareness of the ills brought about by Gender Based Violence. An initiative co-found- ed by media personalities Losika ‘Luzboy’ Seboni and Robin ‘Robbie Rob’ Chivazve, the exhibition fight is set to be an annual event as the founders hinted in their pre- fight press conference weeks ago. Chivazve, representing Team Gorilla, started the fight on the offensive but Seboni had a better reach advantage. Both men had their moments in the early rounds but Chivazve eventually won the fight after the first few rounds as fatigue had visibly started to kick in. Although Chivazve emerged victorious the biggest winner of the night was the Feel Good Fight platform as it delivered a clear message to GBV perpetrators that they should pick on someone their own size. Not only did the Feel Good Fight 1 show that boxing is the per- fect sport to combine fitness and relieving tension, it also showed that both men were willing to take vicious blows for the greater good of taking a stand against violence against women and children. As fathers and media personnel, Chivazve and Seboni are influential people by default and they have used their platforms to convey an important message in the midst of the GBV wave that has even claimed the lives of numer- ous people in recent times. GBV has taken a turn for the worse in Botswana with cases escalating with each passing day, more heartbreak- ing and horrific stories grab the headlines. Women and children fear for their safety as perpetrators of GBV usu- ally take out their frustrations on them. Boxing has been recommended as a remedy for those in need of getting rid of tension, frustration and anger. Breaking a sweat can do wonders as one gets to relieve stress by engaging in physical activity which may not do harm to the innocent souls that depend on men for safety, security and comfort. Hitting a punching bag or sparring with a fellow training mate can reduce muscle and mental tension that is sometimes taken out on the nearest people around the perpetrators. It is very seldom that men open up about their frustrations or seek professional help but boxing or any other sport offers them a quicker way of relieving stress. The Feel Good Fight lived up to the hype as it achieved its objective of raising awareness about the need to refrain from causing harm to women and children.
